I log in as myself on the console and start X. I want to point the
server to my $HOME/lib/font.alias, so I do this,
$ xset -q
$ xset +fp /u/pa/lib
$ xset -q
where the two -q's are for sanity checking. Sure enough, the middle
xset has no effect. Any clues? am I forgetting something? seems
simple enough.
And then...
I made a private copy of xset.c, thinking I had found the bug (just
hallucinating, never mind that). The compilation failed with something
like this: 1501-229 [compilation ran out of space].
Question: what `space' are we talking about? swap? /tmp? $cwd? a table
in memory? I searched the info database in vain. If I knew, I might
do something about it. Fortunately, this problem is intermittent :)
According to lslpp, we have bos 03.01.0000.0001 and
xlccmp 01.01.0000.0000.

Be sure to call it in to IBM and complain; IBM listens to customers, but only if they talk. Disclaimer stuff: I don't speak for IBM & they don't speak for me.
